The endless rivers, the beaches that are sometimes wide and narrow, the overlapping terraces, the steep hillsides, the winding and majestic cliffs, the strange peaks and rocks, the canyons that look like lines to the sky, and the flying mountains where the springs gather. Waterfalls, open or dark caves, and green colors in all four seasons make up its extraordinary scenery. It has the grandeur and dynamics of river canyons, the vicissitudes and vigor of dry canyons in limestone areas, and the depth and freshness of gurgling canyons. Combining majesty, danger, wonder, beauty and tranquility, it can be described as a typical canyon scenery. The most outstanding thing is its sculptural rock landscape, such as the bust of Mao Zedong, the corresponding Xishan pagoda, the singing rooster, the roaring horse, the watching eagle, the twelve zodiac gatherings, etc. Truly unparalleled.
